The Technology Commercialization Program, sponsored by the University of Utah Research Foundation, supports research in all areas of technology including medical devices, biomaterials, immunodiagnostics, drug design and development, etc. The emphasis is on developing novel, near-commercialization technologies.
The Foundation will support research projects that have strong potential for generating invention disclosures, patents, licensing and product commercialization in the short term. Thus, the Foundation will fund high-risk, fast-track research in order to generate private investment for further development within a two year period.
Applicants must clearly indicate the economic potential of the expected research results and identify a potential partner for subsequent commercialization.
The bi-annual deadlines for submission of proposals are March 15th and Sept 15th.
For more information on the Technology Commercialization Program, please visit the Intramural Funding page at the Vice President of Research Home Page.
